January Planner Flip | How this month went in my Sterling Ink Common Planner

[@LoriGoertzenHuber]

Yes to monthly flips! Inspiring and helpful. Your whole setup is beautiful.

[@MartinMadeCo]

Thanks so much 😊

[@lisakay0685]

PLEASE continue monthly flips! I'm new to the planner community and I love to see your ideas!

[@MartinMadeCo]

I definitely will! I’m happy to share.

[@tortagialla]

I definitely like to see how people use their pages and not just deco 👌

[@MartinMadeCo]

Agreed! Thanks for chiming in 😊

[@annettefertitta6868]

I like the monthly flips! I am in love with my Sterling B6. Week #’s used to not be important to me but I find they give a perspective- love them now! Thank you for sharing all of your beautiful ideas and work!

[@MartinMadeCo]

That’s exactly it! The week numbers give better perspective on how time is passing. Thank you so much for watching & commenting Annette!

[@melanieannplans2666]

I love the monthly flip-thrus! I actually really like your weekly reviews and am incorporating it into my Hobonichi Weeks Mega; there's a large section in the back for notes and I've been experimenting with how I want to use those pages, so I'm going to try a weekly reflections for a couple weeks. Hope you're having a great weekend Kim!

[@MartinMadeCo]

Using the notes pages for weekly reviews sounds awesome! And you might find some questions or prompts that work better for you over those few weeks, so give yourself freedom to try different things. But intentionally reflecting on your systems and life overall is always such a great practice, I think. Wishing you a great weekend, too, Melanie!

[@delle3955]

I was thinking to do the same thing on my Weeks…meanwhile I’m itching to buy a Sterling Ink in B6 or TN size.

[@gwenjones4235]

[@MartinMadeCo]

Thanks Dawn!

[@tyresseferguson2462]

I enjoy monthly flips

[@MartinMadeCo]

Thanks for letting me know, Tyresse!

[@stevekail4543]

A small suggestion: you might enjoy using sticky notes that are die cut in fun shapes instead of the ones with straight edges. It might add a little extra pizzazz. I hope in 2024 you'll do some videos about your fountain pen collection. I always like to see what other people are collecting. Best wishes. 🙂

[@MartinMadeCo]

That’s a great idea, Steve! Sticky notes in interesting shapes are always fun. And I definitely will be incorporating more fountain pen videos. There have been a few additions since my last video. 😊 And I recently had the idea that it might be fun to kind of talk through my thoughts on collecting while cleaning out some of my pens. So those videos are coming soon!

[@mdettec-97]

[@MartinMadeCo]

Aww! Thanks so much, Dana! I will definitely continue 😊

[@ms.smith2]

Great video -- your planner is so gorgeous -- thanks for sharing -- and, yes, please continue the monthly flip -- they are so v. good!

[@MartinMadeCo]

I will certainly continue! Thanks so much for chiming in and thanks for watching! 😊

[@MoniM_]

Ive been waiting for this! I ordered a VDS and patiently (not really) waiting for it- I ordered it in Decmeber after I found your channel . I need more videos from you :)

[@kalanistone5370]

Thank you for sharing. Love your systems. I just finished the 12WY too. Starting the week. Can’t wait. If you are incorporating it into your system I would love to see how you will be doing the tactics and applications. Please keep doing the flip throughs. I feel like you are goal and task oriented, many like to decorate but not using their planners.

[@MartinMadeCo]

Thanks for the feedback, Kalani! I really do appreciate it. And incorporating some 12WY content is a great idea! I’m still working on how to tailor the ideas to my own systems, but I really am liking the concept overall. And it seems like you get me 😆 Having a pretty planner is awesome but if it’s not working to get things done and helping me reach my goals, what’s the point, right?

[@kalanistone5370]

@@MartinMadeCo there is a Fields Note workbook I bought for my husband to help with the planning and steps, if you want to explore more. I have seen great accomplishment in my industry using this technique. Please keep sharing. 👍🌺

[@MartinMadeCo]

@kalanistone5370 I just looked it up and that does sound like something I’d be really interested in. Thanks for the recommendation!

[@AmberUnfinished]

That left column…sometimes I use it for weekly tracking…like how many hours I actually slept or how many steps. Other times I have just used it to write in a quote or verse that was speaking to me that week. ❤

[@MartinMadeCo]

I do already track sleep elsewhere, but I love the idea of using it for a quote or verse. Thanks!

[@LifewithLisaAnn]

I was wondering, when, considering this planner or the PTD TN full year which is what I have in my stash, how I could incorporate my trackers and lists, and so forth, and still have room for all of my dailies, considering the number of notes pages. I probably would not need a whole page for one day so I like the way you are using these. Thanks for sharing. This is my second go-round on this video, and I picked up more ideas!

[@MartinMadeCo]

Agreed. I was a bit worried about space in the back, as well, but since I don’t regularly use a full page per day, I think it’ll work out just fine. I’m so glad you found this video helpful!
